Enrique Iglesias nabbed three trophies at the 15th annual Latin Grammy Awards on Thursday (20Nov14) and accepted his prizes from halfway around the world. The Hero hitmaker was the big winner at the prizegiving at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, but he was not able to pick up his honours in person because he was in Antwerp, Belgium as part of his ongoing Sex and Love tour.
Iglesias claimed the night's Best Urban Performance and Best Urban Song prizes before the ceremony for his hit Bailando, and during the main show, he scored the coveted Song of the Year accolade.
He was able to give an acceptance speech live via satellite from the Sportpaleis Antwerpen venue and later, a pre-taped performance of his Grammy-winning track with Descemer Bueno and Gente De Zona during his concert in Madrid last week (15Nov14) ended the ceremony.
Puerto Rican rappers Calle 13 were up for nine awards but only walked away with two - Best Urban Music Album for MultiViral and Best Alternative Song for El Aguante, which they performed at the beginning of the show.
Other multiple-trophy winners included Carlos Vives (Best Contemporary Tropical Album and Best Tropical Song) and the late Paco de Lucia, who died in February (14), aged 66. His wife, Gabriela Carrasco, and her children accepted his prizes for Album of the Year and Best Flamenco Album.
Spanish singer/songwriter Joan Manuel Serrat was named the Person of the Year in recognition of his career achievements.
Meanwhile, the night was filled with 20 performances from some of Latin music's biggest artists, including memorable collaborations between Pitbull, Wisin and Chris Brown, Ricky Martin and Camila, Marc Anthony and Magic!, and Pepe Aguilar and Miguel Bose, while Pitbull also joined forces with Carlos Santana, and Anthony returned for a duet with Vives.
The ceremony, which was hosted by actors Eugenio Derbez and Jacqueline Bracamontes, was delayed by almost 20 minutes as organisers had to wait for the end of U.S. President Barack Obama's televised speech to the nation about immigration reform.
